So its interesting that y'all are not vibing with it as much, because the term I keep seeing a lot of people saying is it feels like their most "cohesive" album, and a lot are saying its at least their favorite of the trilogy (Easy, Crazy, Hot) despite most of the track lengths.
I have to say I wholeheartedly disagree on them being necessarily easier tracks to get out in time for promoting. I think its just a different vibe for them, and I think some of the lyrics and messages are more personal for them in the b sides for some of the struggles theyve faced over the last year (Yunjin has composing and lyrics credits on Ash and So Cynical, and Eunchae on So Cynical).
Also if its in time to promote for anything, its for their first world tour which starts in a little less than a month, lol.
Also Ash is my current B side of the year. I'm surprised I didn't just shuffle off this mortal coil I ascended so high listening to it the first time. Its also banned from broadcast because of some of the lyrical themes, unfortunately.
